IMSA kicks off new information program - Zhanda Malone, Intelligencer

The Illinois Mathematics and Science Academy (IMSA) has launched the 21st Century Information Fluency Program for schools throughout Illinois. The program builds the capacity of middle and high school librarians, teachers and students to locate, evaluate and use Internet information resources productively. School librarians participate in an online course and use a rich array of Web-based learning materials and software tools. Librarians then recruit teachers from their schools to develop lesson plans that integrate Internet resources into learning experiences. Participating librarians and teachers become members of an online network that connects them to Illinois colleagues dedicated to online learning and to timely information about online resources.
